The Gorenko Anti-Tank Rifle is naturally slow, so we’ll begin this Warzone loadout by equipping the 420mm Empress barrel and Leather Grip which will improve ADS speed. The Mercury Silencer will keep your shots hidden and improve your Sniper’s accuracy.
The 13mm AM 10 Round Mags are the largest mag capacity for the Gorenko and it’s important to have plenty of bullets when taking on squads in Warzone. FMJ Rounds will increase your bullet penetration, which is great for when you’re trying to shoot through objects.
The SVT-40 PU Scope 3-6x is the ideal optic for the Gorenko and it will allow you to adjust the magnification based on your needs in any given situation. The Reinforced Stock will further improve the weapon’s accuracy, while the Bipod will help reduce recoil.
On-Hand will improve the Gorenko’s ADS speed to a greater extent and Focus will improve flinch resistance, making it easier to hit your shots when enemies are firing at you.
Best Perks & Equipment to use with Warzone Gorenko Anti-Tank Rifle
- Perk 1: E.O.D
- Perk 2: Overkill
- Perk 3: Amped
- Lethal Equipment: Throwing Knife
- Tactical Equipment: Stim
E.O.D will come in handy when facing enemy explosives. The extra resistance it will provide could allow you to survive long enough to take out your opponents. Overkill will allow you to pair the Gorenko with a Sniper support SMG like the Armaguerra 43.
Meanwhile, Amped will allow you to quickly swap between the Gorenko and your SMG, allowing you to be prepared for every type of encounter.
The Throwing Knife is perfect for finishing off downed enemies while preserving ammunition, and the Stim will provide a vital health and movement boost in tight situations.
How to unlock Gorenko Anti-Tank Rifle in Warzone
Luckily for players looking to capitalize on the Gorenko’s newfound success, the Sniper has been available completely free since Season 4 Reloaded, after Activision removed the unlock requirement for the weapon.
The original unlock requirement for players tasked them with getting 10 single-shot eliminations with Sniper Rifles in 15 different completed matches.
Best alternatives to the Gorenko Anti-Tank Rifle in Warzone
The 3-Line Rifle is an excellent alternative to the Gorenko in Warzone for players who enjoy utilizing the game’s Sniper Rifles. You’ll definitely notice a difference between how nimble the 3-Line Rile is compared to the Gorenko, but it certainly packs less of a punch.
Otherwise, the HDR is a heavy Sniper Rifle that could feel similar to the Gorenko in Warzone Pacific Season 5, aside from the fact that the Gorenko is a semi-automatic Sniper.
